Thanks to everyone who made the event such a huge success!All scoring was done on the 100 point scoring system utilized for the CrossFit Games.Complete results, including each WOD placing can be found at http://winterchiller-2015.wodcast.com/

-Athlete will start at lightest stone and have 1 minute to lift stone to shoulder.

-Athlete may not skip stones. All stones must be done in order.

-Athlete may lift stone to either shoulder.

-Athlete will remove 1 hand from stone with hand being clearly away from body once under control on shoulder and wait for judge's "DOWN" command for the lift to count.

-No tacky or any sticky tape will be allowed. Athlete may use athletic tape with sticky side in (not out toward stone), long sleeves, forearm sleeves or any non-sticky forearm covering.

-Athlete must drop stone on designated stone mats.

-It is the athletes responsibility to make sure the stone is at rest on the stone mat. If it rolls off the mat the athlete may recover the stone as long as it is within their 1 minute allotted time. If this is not done the athlete will be given credit for the previous stone lifted and will NOT be given the opportunity to perform the double under tie breaker.

-If stone is dropped behind athlete it will be a "No Lift". Athlete may repeat the lift if time is still remaining. 2 drops behind body or missing designated stone mats will result in disqualification.

-Athlete may choose to skip their attempt on a stone they know they can't lift and spend their allotted 1 minute on double unders.

-Athlete may start performing double unders once they shoulder the stone in their station (making sure stone is sitting on stone mat under control) and continue on performing double unders for the next minute since they earned the right to be in that station whether they attempt the next heavier stone or not.

Double Unders

-Double Unders will be all that is allowed. No single unders will count.

-Throwing jump rope will earn a score of "0" on WOD #3. Bad sportsmanship will not be tolerated.

This year each division will have a different check in time. No reason to sit there for hours waiting for your division to start (unless you just want to). Please keep in mind that the check in times posted below can change and that you will have 45 minutes to 1 hour before your heats actually start. Once you start on WOD 1 you will complete all 3 WODs in 60-90 minutes. We will then go right in to the finals. We have 200 athletes, but we will keep things moving as always.Check in times...

We have opened the registration for our 5th Annual Winter Chiller that will take place at Fairmont State University on Saturday, January 31st. We capped out this event last year at 192 registrations and sold out in less than 2 weeks. This year we are adding a Master's Men and Women's Division in addition to our Men's and Women's Novice, Intermediate and Open divisions. We anticipate having 200 athletes competing this year. We have set aside 12 spots in each division for early-bird pricing and some divisions have the reduced pricing still available (every division except the Women's Novice) so if you sign up now, you may get the reduced rate! Here are a few details about the event that may sway your decision to sign up today!

All athletes will be guaranteed 3 workouts. In other words, the fields will not be cut until after the 3rd workout; if you're in the top 12 or so in your division, congratulations! You get to do more work!

We will be allowing all divisions to check in one hour before their scheduled heat time so you won't have to wait around for hours to compete. For example, if you will be competing in the Men's Open, it is anticipated that you will not need to be onsite for check-in until 10:45 am. This will make it more convenient for those traveling, for meal-planning, etc. We will be posting the final schedule well in advance of the event so you can plan accordingly.

All of the events in the Intense Games series utilize stones in some way. It's what we do. Prepare accordingly.

We believe that the workouts should get progressively harder and challenging throughout the day (duh)! Even though we want to push everyone's limits to find the fittest at our event, we also think that there is empowerment in someone looking at the workouts and saying, "Hey! I can do that!"

We want to promote the art of competition as we believe it makes one better, no matter their experience level.

We will be utilizing an online real-time scoring system. We will announce the web page for everyone to check for scores throughout the day.

Everyone at our events MUST HAVE FUN!!! There is so much work and preparation that go into these events that causes tons of stress and headaches in the weeks and days leading up to the event. However, once the athletes start rolling in, we are quickly reminded of why we do what we do. We plan on having a good time and insist that you have fun, too!

Everyone is welcome no matter what affiliate/non-affiliate they are from, regardless of gender, size, experience, favorite color or shoe size. We are convinced we have the best group of volunteers that make our events a success and that includes the fact that EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
